What I'm looking for

I’m seeking full-time Automation Tester / Manual tester roles where I can build reliable Selenium automation and API testing, strengthen release quality, and support production with a development-minded approach using Agile practices.

I’m a Software Developer & Automation Tester with 8+ years of experience delivering enterprise Java applications and robust automation solutions across automotive, banking, and telecom. I bridge development and quality engineering—owning features end-to-end and improving release stability, reducing regression effort, and strengthening production readiness.

In recent roles, I built and maintained Selenium WebDriver automation frameworks (cutting manual regression effort by ~35–40%), implemented RESTful services and UI components, and optimized SQL for data-heavy workflows. I also drive quality through Agile/Scrum practices, UAT execution, and production support—resolving critical defects within SLA timelines while mentoring others on coding and testing best practices.
